In a hilariously honest and insight-packed chat, Ashley Arpel Steinback and Scotty Mullen dive headfirst into the wonderfully weird world of casting—where self-tapes reign supreme, headshots lie more than dating profiles, and directors stitch together Oscar-worthy performances from actors who can barely emote past “mildly confused.” Scotty, who went from PR pro to Sharknado survivor (yes, that Sharknado), spills behind-the-scenes secrets about why casting directors don’t care if you flub a line, why the slate is just your cinematic nametag, and why you absolutely should submit that audition—even if you're wearing pajama pants and existential dread. He shares how persistence pays off, how he loves finding diamonds in non-union roughs, and how one actress went from pole-dancing villainess to hard-nosed detective, all thanks to someone believing in her talent. Oh, and Scotty’s also prepping for a summer in Spain—because nothing says “I survived casting” like tapas and siestas.Follow Scotty here:https://www.instagram.com/scottymullen/Checkout the new Hopecast website:https://thehopecastnetwork.com/Follow the show here:https://www.instagram.com/loxoflaughspodcast/https://www.instagram.com/thatsashleyskitchen/
